Hey @Adi_Nugroho - we don’t have a way to manually do this with the blocks in the app.

Can I ask why you need (needed?) this feature for your project?

Because my app is using webviewer and need to delete cache periodically from the webview, since it’s an event schedule app which updated in every 30 minutes.

Sounds really interesting @Adi_Nugroho,

Can you share any screenshots with us?

Is there any chance that something like the WebAPI component would be a better fit for this project?

Got it.

So if you refresh it should just load a new page or new set of events, right?

I have the exact same problem, mostly with my CSS.

The PHP/HTML code is nicely refreshed but the CSS takes time as mentioned by Adi.

Found a solution, I went to Thunkable live app in the android settings and into the storage section and hit the clear cache button… pyh, finally I can test my latest updates…
